Hi,
I’m migrating here from Ebay. However, i noticed that I can search for an item on google or Duck and inevitably will get a result from Ebay.
This doesn’t seem to happen with Bonanza listings.
Does anyone happen to know why?

Here, seems like i don’t have a chance unless I pay the 9% fee.
So that’s 3.5% +9% ? Wow!
NO…………….It is just 9% and you only pay 9% if there are add clicks on the item…so if there are no ad clicks and the item sold through a direct link or through bonanza search then the fee will be 3.5%..
If the listing is new at the time you searched (ie less than 72 hrs…it can take 24-72 hrs to process new listings for search) it more than likely is still in the indexing process and will not show in search
You do not have to have the 9% for items to show in bonanza searches only for google shopping. Google does not treat all marketplaces equally…
There is one item in your booth which was listed yesterday, probably wasn’t even indexed nor your google feed sent yet…
Google organic crawls the site and items do show in google organic when searched..
And unlike ebay, we really can’t get away with one line discriptions and see photos…
Only items sent by your google feed will show in google shopping and the more established a store the more likely it will show…If the same item is listed at ebay and bonanza..the older listing will be more likely to show

Your item now appears in bonanza internal searches…
Go to Selling Dashboard

Ad trouble shooter
Click on Refresh your feed if you have selected 9%fvf

Bonanza listings show up in Google Shopping IF you set the Bonanza final value fees to 9%. Otherwise, they don’t appear. Totally worth it imo.

OK , I think I figured out how things work here. External search engine are blocked.
This is because the internal Bonanza search won’t show your products unless you pay the advertising fee.
Just tried a test listing didn’t see my listing at all but a ton of products from another seller even if they didn’t meet he search criteria.
This is quite different than the way Feebay’s search works. At least there everyone is displayed on an even playing field, and the customer can look for he best vendor or price.

Furthermore, this site does not appear to have the benefit of allowing Google to find internal listings on Bonanza.
I tested this by searching for things that exist here and on Ebay.
only Ebay listngs are offered by Google, nothing from the Bonanza listings.
So, if sales are slow, that’s why.
